4 August 2012

Breakfast:	McDonald's for two bacon egg and cheese sandwich, the potatoe slabs with I took home and put in the refer (and will probably throw out in a couple of weeks). It was not what anyone could have called a special meal; we had planned on going out for a special breakfast...
Snack:	dark chocolate and coffee
Lunch:	Montana Mike's for a half pound hamburger with bacon and fries and "Diet Pepsi" We had to tell our waitress the cooik had left the bacon off both our hamburgers. She immediately brought out a couple of slices for both of us. That was a nice touch and helped her tip out...
Snack:	ttt.
Dinner:	We ushered at the Dodge City Roundup Rodeo and had a hamburger and bottle of water each. Later, we split an pastry (funnel cake), covered with strawberry sauce and strawberry.
Snack:	just some water and mucinex

Exercise:  I stood around being an usher at the Dodge City Roundup Rodeo and this counts for about  2½ hours of "walking under 2 mph" (according to the Presidents Exercise committee web page)

¿So we wanted a nice sit-down Saturday breakfast?

Kathie and I have the day off and decided to go some place nice for a sit-down breakfast. I talked her into ordering off the menu vice doing a buffet. I was looking forward to a special morning...

We decided to go out for breakfast and  decided to go to the "Inn Pancake House". There were no cars in the extra parking lot across the street and an elderly woman walking toward the only car in their parking lot.  Kathie said "they must be closed" and we drove around the front of the Inn Pancake House. There was a sign that read We are closed for updates to better serve you.

This is the Dodge City Rodeo Days and there are a lot of people in town. This is a wonderful time for a restaurant to make money. My wife suggested they must have been closed by the Health Department.

We then went to the Dodge House and their parking lot was crammed. We didn't even bother trying to go in...

We went by Kathe's and they were closed.

We went by Mike Casey's "Casey's Cowtown" and there were only two cars out front (including the owner's sister's car).

Kathie was not pleased with "Home of Jo-nes" the last time she went there so we didn't go there. I was happy with them the last time I went there.

"Montana Mike's" and "Applebee's" simply don't serve breakfast!

We tried going to a restaurant my wife had heard of but simply could not find it!

 

We refuse to go to "Cha-Cha's" Place for various reasons (mainly fucking over the waitresses, not paying her taxes and spending operating funds at the casino in the silly hope she could recoop her business loses...). If the only

We thought about going to a nearby town to have breakfast but didn't feel like driving that far.

We went to McDonald's because they have decaf coffee and Burger King does not. Both are nice places to grab a quick breakfast early on a work day.

Neither are "special" as in "a special place to have a nice sit down breakfast".

As an aside, we were ushers at the Dodge City Rodeo and only paid $2 for the meal and a can of Diet Pepsi.


P.S.: It was only after we had "breakfast" that I remembered that Sonic and Subway Sub have "breakfast". That is, they serve items  from that meal but nothing very great.

Update 4 August 2012: My wife knows some of the waitresses at "Inn Pancake House". She was told that about three weeks ago, the waitresses were yelling at the cooks to get them to work faster. To me, this sounds like a work slowdown on the part of the cooks. Speculation is the cooks were fired and management is rebuilding. 

Anthony Michael "Tony" Bourdain  wrote you that you can tell the cleanliness of the kitchen based on the cleanliness of the public toilets. I've always thought their toilets were reasonably clean and does my wife. Thus, their kitchen is probably clean.

Update 5 August 2012: We discussed this with comeone well connected in the business community and found out "Inn Pancake House" was shut down by the state for cleaniness purposes.  I am quite disappointed. 

17 July 2007

Breakfast: Oatmeal and a cup of coffee.

Snack:Thich slice of sour dough bread with peanut butter and a can of D.P.

Lunch: A McDonald's Bacon Chicken salad and a can of D.P.

There is something I don't like about these salads. It is not just the lack of veggies but is the roasted chicken. Their roasted chicken just bothers me. I don't know if it is the breading or whatever but regardless, I got most of the chicken down before I wasn't able to continue stuffing this "chicken" into me.

On the other hand, when I gave the left overs to my dog, I'm not sure he even chewed before he swallowed the "chicken".

I guess I rewarded him well for sitting there waiting...

Dinner: Homemade pot roast, potatoes, carrots and water. I was planning on testing my blood sugar 2 hours after eatting but got done eatting too late and went to bed before the 2 hours was up. Oh, well...

Pre-Bed Snack:
